Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The National Archives has awarded a contract titled "Wiz Cloud Services" to Softcat Plc for the provision of software packages and information systems. The procurement process was managed through a selective method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement, with Softcat Plc being selected as the supplier. The contract, valued at £789,940, commenced on 24th January 2026 and is set to conclude on 23rd March 2029. Located in Richmond, England, The National Archives published the award notice on 4th March 2026, marking the final stage of the procurement process.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in cloud services and software package solutions to engage with public sector clients like The National Archives. As the contract spans over three years, it provides a substantial growth opportunity for companies adept at delivering high-quality information systems. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in these services may find similar future tenders promising, given the demonstrable suitability for SME involvement. However, this particular procurement did not emphasise social enterprise involvement, indicating a preference for businesses with extensive technology and cloud service capabilities.
